Why is a square root called a squared root

In the 9th century, Arab writers usually called one of the equal factors of a number jadhr (“root”), and their medieval European translator used the Latin word radix (from which derives the adjective radical). Radix is the Latin for root, and radical is the name of the square root symbol.

It is called a square root because you are having to find a number that is multiplied by itself to get the number that is intended. Let's you have to find the square root of 16. It would of course be 4 because 4*4 is 16. So in this case it could also be written as 4 to the second power. Hope this helped. :)

Find the average value of f over region
SVETLANKA909090 [29]
D is a right triangle with base length 1 and height 8, so the area of D is \dfrac12(1)(8)=4.

The average value of f(x,y) over D is given by the ratio

\dfrac{\displaystyle\iint_Df(x,y)\,\mathrm dA}{\displaystyle\iint_D\mathrm dA}

The denominator is just the area of D, which we already know. The average value is then simplified to

\displaystyle\frac74\iint_Dxy\,\mathrm dA

In the x,y-plane, we can describe the region D as all points (x,y) that lie between the lines y=0 and y=8x (the lines which coincide with the triangle's base and hypotenuse, respectively), taking 0\le x\le1. So, the integral is given by, and evaluates to,

\displaystyle\frac74\int_{x=0}^{x=1}\int_{y=0}^{y=8x}xy\,\mathrm dy\,\mathrm dx=\frac78\int_{x=0}^{x=1}xy^2\bigg|_{y=0}^{y=8x}\,\mathrm dx
=\displaystyle56\int_{x=0}^{x=1}x^3\,\mathrm dx
=14x^4\bigg|_{x=0}^{x=1}

Can someone help me really please
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

26

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the missing number

8\frac{11}{15} = 7\frac{x}{15}

Convert both fractions to improper fractions

\frac{131}{15} = \frac{105 + x}{15}

Cross multiply

15(105 + x) = 15(131)

1,575 + 15x = 1,965

Subtract both sides by 1,575

15x = 1,965 - 1,575

15x = 390

Divide both sides by 15

x = \frac{390}{15}

x = 26
